Netizens React to Viral Photo of Man Lying Across Train Seats in Singapore

A man sprawled across five seats on an MRT train in Singapore sparked outrage online after a Facebook user shared his photo in the Complaint Singapore group. Dressed casually, the man rested with his slippers and phone on the floor, prompting disapproval from netizens.

Comments flooded in, with many condemning his lack of consideration. One user bluntly reminded, “The MRT is not your house,” while another lamented, “Things are getting out of hand.” Some speculated the man might have been drunk, though others emphasized manners regardless of circumstances.

Suggestions for stricter enforcement emerged, such as periodic train patrols to curb such behavior. Despite the criticism, one commenter noted a positive takeaway: “Singapore is very safe; the phone on the floor wasn’t taken.”
